Pretty decent introduction if you have some physics background with some basic optical/E&M theory (PhD won’t help otherwise) is Silicon Photonics Design by Chrostowski.
on “Towards an optical FPGA – Programmable silicon photonic circuits [pdf]” ↗…precision. But here we are making more and more photonic and optic things. Fiber optic is taking over. There quite a bit of work in silicon-photonic design (you can check this book https://smile.amazon.com/Silicon-Photonics-Design-Devices-Sy... I mean there's noise yes, but it's actually somewhat manageable in a photonic setup. > You are fighting the laws of thermodynamics. Nowhere near as much as with copper. A fiber optic…
